<p><strong>KALI</strong></p><p>Growing up it was always the three of us. Me, my twin brother, Kyle, and our best friend, Aiden. We were inseparable all the way through high school.</p><p>Did I picture myself with Aiden from the first moment I laid eyes on him back when we were eight? Hell. Yes. I fell in love with his soul that day. But he was always more Kyle&rsquo;s friend than mine. And Kyle made damn sure we both know the rules.</p><p>I was strictly off limits. Forever.</p><p>But now Kyle is gone. Dead from a freak accident. And Aiden is still here. Looking hot as hell in his grown-up body. Looking sexy AF with those tattoos all over his muscular chest. Sad and in need of comfort. &nbsp;Just like me.</p><p><strong>AIDEN</strong></p><p>Every time Kyle caught me lusting after his twin sister, Kali, he reminded me of the rule. &ldquo;You were my friend first.&rdquo;</p><p>If you want to get technical about it, I was Kali&rsquo;s friend first, not Kyle&rsquo;s. But that&rsquo;s not how he saw it. One rule. That&rsquo;s all we had between us. Just one. <em>Stay away from my sister</em>.</p><p>All these years I&rsquo;ve honored that. I never broke his trust. Until now. &nbsp;Because he&rsquo;s dead. He left us. And being with Kali is the only thing that makes the pain go away.</p><p>I want Kali. I want to marry her, and have kids with her, and keep her in my bed forever.</p><p>But I want Kyle&rsquo;s blessing too. And that&rsquo;s something I&rsquo;ll never get.</p>
